Last year I got on a good behaviour for being in a fight with another girl.
Today I got caught stealing and I have to go back to court, but just wondering what would the consequences be?
I am only 17 so will I get locked away or will my bond just be extended?
Thanks

As you are minor, I am not sure about jail, it is correction facility for under the age of 18 (this is my understanding, but I may be wrong),
as you are on the term of good behavior bond (stress the word "good") and you did not fulfill the requirements of the bond, then you will face the court's decision for the first offence and the second one too, I seriously doubt they will extend the bond (again stressing the word "good").
